HP, one of the companies producing laptops and now a days is getting very popular for it’s new designs and a good combination of specifications. An another model by Hp, the HP 15-AC650TU Notebook is a good laptop with good combination of hardware and the most dominating part of it is it’s processor as in this price range a one can hardly find a processor like core i5.
This model has core i5 by Intel which has a clock speed of 1.7GHz which is not even that good however it is having a turbo boost of upto 2.7GHz which is fine for a laptop in this price range but it is of fourth generation which is quite outdated for now as these days the latest ones are of sixth generation. That does matter as new technology is always better than previous ones but in this case it can be given quite less priority.
This laptop has no dedicated graphics. Dedicated graphics processor is also very important part in any laptop in order to process the graphics parts and play games with high graphics. However this laptop has got Intel HD Graphics 4400 which is fine for high definition videos and some of the games with low graphics. Games like GTA San Andreas lags sometimes and is smooth most of the times. It is fine for a laptop in this range as the laptop already has core i5 processor.
This laptop has got 4GB of DDR3 RAM which is also quite outdated for now as DDR4 RAM are already in market but is fine as DDR4 RAM is available only with high range laptops. It has got 1TB of hard disk which is totally okay as it is sufficient for storage space. It also has got 15.6 inch ready HD display which gives good visuals. Another good thing is that this laptop also has DVD writer which is sometimes not available with laptops in this price range. But there is a problem that this laptop doesn’t come with pre-installed Windows and has DOS instead. Most of the laptops in this price range or even lower or higher has atleast any version of Windows installed.
Overall, the laptop is good and has it’s processor as the most dominant part. Holding the laptop gives a feeling that the laptop is structurally quite weighted and weak but inside the combination of hardware is fine and is a good option in this price range.
